Stop large ticketing companies from using dynamic pricing
Ticketmaster have used dynamic pricing several times. To increase ticket prices during a sale because of the number of people queuing is awful. This happened with oasis and system of a down and presumably countless others. With soad tickets went from ~£100 to nearly £400 in less than hour.

Background
Stop them being able to do it. Tell people up front how many gigs there will be, and what prices the tickets will be. They should be fixed and dynamic pricing should be banned. Ideally those have overpaid should be refunded up to the price of the original ticket before dynamic pricing kicked in.
